Sunday, July 26

At about 13:00 Jutta, Kaitsu, Myy and Lilli arrive in Kuliikki, their orange and white Volkswagen bus.

We eat freshly made salad with one on Gunnel Englund’s amazing pies, along with home-made cherry crumble, using cherries from the tree in the garden.

The girls will trampoline and swim, and then go for a boat ride.

Jutta will produce a pack of Uno Flip cards – a variant I had never seen before, and which I heartily recommend – and we will finish the afternoon with a lengthy round of that.

What a fantastic day!
